Handle Bar Ends Setup for RadRover 6 Plus

[pchew]

I know handle bar ends are not for everyone, but personally I love them for long rides.  Just being able to change grips and position really makes a difference for me.

So for anyone looking to add then to your Rover, I figured out how to do it without having to get new handle bars or move everything over.

I got these handle bar extensions:

And then you can add whatever bar ends you like.  I used these:

You might need to use some super glue when you install the ends as they might rotate with extreme force.

That looks pretty good - thanks for the links.  I assume the bar-end caps pop off so that I could move my current bar-end Mirrycle mirrors to the outside of these once installed?  I have a bit of a problem squeezing onto a trailhead in my neighborhood between a fence and a tree, so even the extra couple of inches of bar width these would add might be a problem, but that's a different thing to work out.

Here's a pic of my current config - I turned the right-side mirror inwards and have barely enough clearance to hit the trail without dismounting the bike as-is.

I don't think your bar end mirrors will work in the bar extensions,  I don't think they will go in far enough to work.

Right, of course; thanks!  I was somehow thinking the new bars would be a pass-through for the mirror mount (which is about 3" long as I recall) but of course they can't be given how they work and the need for the extension.
